During pregnancy, no system in the body does not undergo major changes. The aim of this book, therefore, is to describe the physiology of these changes and to explain how an understanding of them is relevant to the care of the pregnant woman. The book is organized by body system and describes in detail the findings of the latest research into the physiology of human pregnancy. Good clinical practice in obstetrics depends on a sound understanding of the relevent physiology, and this book will certainly prove invaluable to all obstetricians, whether in training or in practice.

We are delighted to present the Frontiers in Oncology "Women in Gynecological Oncology” Volume III series of article collections. At present, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers. Therefore, Frontiers in Oncology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all fields of Oncology. The work presented here highlights the diversity of research performed across the entire breadth of Oncology research and presents advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.
